Don't Ask the Dragon

- Reviews -

A lovely book, simple and yet profound. There should be a copy in every nursery -- JACQUELINE WILSON A stunning new rhyming folk tale for our time, about someone who wonders where is home. The answer is surprising but it tells us all, from the youngest reader to the oldest that you can find home so long as you' ve got friends. It' s moving, loveable and philosophical, in other words, great mind-soup! -- MICHAEL ROSEN Lemn' s dragon is one we all need to meet, want to meet. A dragon with kind teeth, a friend-dragon. A Lemn-dragon! We have grandchildren who will love it. Grandpa loved it too -- MICHAEL MORPURGO The story is perfectly matched by the wonderful illustrations and I love the message of home being inside you -- MALORIE BLACKMAN, author of NOUGHTS AND CROSSES A lovely celebration of friendship and belonging, perfect for reading out loud -- CERRIE BURNELL
